This week a new article is out by Nathaniel Gonzalez on inter-religious collaboration in Mingalar Taung Nyunt. It brings to mind a host of literature on similar topics on these issues that those interested should also consult. For instance, back in 2017 Walton, Schissler, and Phyu Phyu Thi analyzed what helped foil the နောက်ကွေကလက်မဲကြီး-orchestrated riots then. On similar community-led efforts we also have Chan Myawe Aung San’s article on the way that cultural and religious festivals and events enable community cohesion in a deprived Yangon Buddhist and Hindu neighborhood, and Harrison’s article on Muslim life in Mawlamyaing. Then, for some historical context of inter-religious inclusion, see the article by Htet Min Lwin (up for BSG chair – don’t forget to pay your dues so you can vote, here!)
